2. Open ye the gates, that enter may a righteous nation, Preserving stedfastness.
3. An imagination supported Thou fortifiest peace--peace! For in Thee it is confident.
4. Trust ye in Jehovah for ever, For in Jah Jehovah [is] a rock of ages,
5. For He bowed down the dwellers on high, A city set on high He maketh low, He maketh it low unto the earth, He causeth it to come unto the dust,
6. Tread it down doth a foot, Feet of the poor--steps of the weak.
7. The path for the righteous [is] uprightness, O upright One, The path of the righteous Thou dost ponder.
8. Also, [in] the path of Thy judgments, O Jehovah, we have waited [for] Thee, To Thy name and to Thy remembrance [Is] the desire of the soul.
9. [With] my soul I desired Thee in the night, Also, [with] my spirit within me I seek Thee earnestly, For when Thy judgments [are] on the earth, The inhabitants of the world have learned righteousness.
